External links

I noticed you have improved several articles, including Immunohistochemistry. However, you should be aware that external links should not be used within an article (see WP:CITE#Embedded links). All information must be verifiable, and if the website you are linking to is a reliable source, it can be used as a reference. It can be a bit tricky to format references correctly, but it is fine to do it as in the following:

This is some fact.<ref>http://www.example.com/page_supporting_fact</ref> This example shows the correct punctuation and spacing placement.

We almost never put a link or a reference in a section heading (by link, I mean a wikilink to another article such as evolution; we never put a link to an external website in a section heading). Don't worry about this at the moment because someone will clean it up. However, if it's not done in a reasonable time the edits may need to be reverted because we have to avoid encouraging WP:LINKSPAM. For reference, the following shows articles with the links: LinkSearch. Johnuniq (talk) 00:51, 6 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

November 2013

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Dialysis (biochemistry) may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s and 1 "<>"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:

agents, or dyes from larger macromolecules such as [[protein]]s, [[DNA]], or [[polysaccharides]]).<ref>{{cite book | last = Berg | first = JM | authorlink = Jeremy M. Berg | year = 2007 | title =

Replaceable fair use File:Assorted-diaylsis-devices.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Assorted-diaylsis-devices.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:

Go to the file description page and add the text {{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}} below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing <your reason> with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. BrownCow  (how now?) 23:15, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
